PkgTemplates creates new Julia packages in an easy, repeatable, and customizable way.
Install with Pkg, just like any other registered Julia package:
pkg> add PkgTemplates # Press ']' to enter the Pkg REPL mode.Creating a Template is as simple as:
using PkgTemplates
t = Template()The no-keywords constructor assumes the existence of some preexisting Git configuration (set with git config --global):
user.name: Your real name, e.g. John Smith.user.email: Your email address, eg. john.smith@acme.corp.github.user: Your GitHub username: e.g. john-smith.
Once you have a Template, use it to generate a package:
t("MyPkg")However, it's probably desirable to customize the template to your liking with various options and plugins:
t = Template(;
dir="~/code",
plugins=[
Git(; manifest=true, ssh=true),
Codecov(),
TravisCI(; x86=true),
Documenter{TravisCI}(),
],
